When she woke up, there was only one thought in her mind: to go to the military camp to find Wu Chunzhe.
"My lady, you can't go. There's an important meeting in the general's tent. It's really inappropriate for a woman like you." Mu Chan urged anxiously, but it was of no use. Liu Yushu was determined. "Quickly find me the fastest horse."
Liu Yushu spent a fortune to buy two fast horses. The coachman happened to be a soldier saved by Wu Chunzhe on the battlefield. As soon as he heard that Liu Yushu was going to the battlefield, he immediately whipped up the horses and took Liu Yushu safely to the military camp.
The soldiers guarding the camp gate didn't let her in at first, but later they let her through after seeing Wu Chunzhe's waist token.
Liu Yushu rushed straight to the general's tent. Suddenly, her body froze. She rushed to the wooden couch and threw herself on the ground. Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. "A Zhe, A Zhe..." She reached out and gently stroked Wu Chunzhe's weather - beaten face.
Wu Chunzhe was in a coma. His body was wrapped in thick gauze, soaked in blood. His face was pale, and he lay motionless on the simple couch, looking like a corpse.
He was shot in the chest by an enemy's poisoned arrow, which almost pierced his heart. The poison had been removed, but his injury was too severe, and he had been in a coma for four days and four nights. The military doctor said that if he didn't wake up soon, he might never wake up again.
It had only been three months since they last saw each other, but he had aged a lot. He was so thin that his bones stuck out, looking extremely haggard.
Liu Yushu clenched his hand tightly. His hand was getting colder and colder.
"A Zhe, no matter where you go, I'll be with you." Liu Yushu pulled his hand to touch her lower abdomen. "Our child is waiting to call you daddy. You can't die. The child can't be fatherless, and I don't want to be a widow!"
The soldiers in the military camp also couldn't do without the general's command.
Liu Yushu stayed by Wu Chunzhe's side for a whole day and night. She cried for a whole day and night. Finally, her body couldn't hold on and she collapsed. When she opened her eyes again, she vaguely heard a kind and familiar male voice asking her, "Where's the child?"
She suddenly opened her eyes wide. Her swollen eyes couldn't help getting moist again. In front of her, Wu Chunzhe was smiling weakly, his big hand gently touching her cheek. He looked extremely tired.
Thank God, Wu Chunzhe woke up.
"A Zhe!" Liu Yushu hugged him tightly and wept bitterly. He smiled happily and frowned. "Xiaoshu, be gentle. The wound hurts too much."
Only then did she remember that he was still a patient, and she quickly let go of him.
The military doctor came in to deliver food and medicine. Seeing Liu Yushu there, he gave some instructions and then left in a hurry, not wanting to disturb the newly - reunited couple.
He was too weak to move, so she patiently and gently fed him.
She took a sip of the decoction and held it in her mouth. The bitter taste made her frown. She leaned down to his lips and pressed them together. The warm decoction was slowly fed into his mouth. His breath became hot, and he kissed her lingeringly. "Xiaoshu, I miss you so much. Do you miss me?"
"What do you think!" Liu Yushu glared at him discontentedly. "I miss you every day and look forward to your safe return."
Wu Chunzhe smiled happily. When he smiled, he still looked like the naughty and unruly boy he used to be. He hugged her possessively and kissed the top of her head. Her hair smelled sweet. "It must have been very hard for you to come here, right?"
She blushed and turned her head away. "It's not hard. It's all worth it for you." She buried her head in his chest peacefully. "You must get better soon. The soldiers are waiting for your command, and the emperor is waiting for your great victory."
There were soldiers guarding outside, so she didn't dare to speak too loudly. She came to his ear and bit his earlobe. "And me. I'm waiting for you to go back and make barbecue for me. If you don't go back, I haven't had any meat dishes for a long time." In order to pray for his safety, she had sworn to be a vegetarian in front of the Buddha.
"I will. I will get better as soon as possible and won't let you worry." Wu Chunzhe was so excited that he wished he could recover instantly and then hug his little wife tightly.
As days passed by, Wu Chunzhe's body gradually recovered. Every day, he was busy with things in the general's tent day and night. Liu Yushu stayed in the camp with him.
Finally, when he finally had some free time, she took the initiative to hug him, but he refused. He smiled and held her hand. "Be good. You're pregnant now. Don't be naughty. Wait until the baby is born and you've finished your confinement. Then you can do whatever you want." Wu Chunzhe didn't want to hurt her.
Liu Yushu felt sweeter than honey in her heart. She refused to let go and pouted. "You fool. If you don't give me a baby, how can the baby be born!"
Wu Chunzhe was completely confused by her words. "Aren't you pregnant?"
Liu Yushu shook her head. "Are you sure you want to reject me?"
"..." Wu Chunzhe was completely dumbfounded.
Seeing his silly look, she burst out laughing. She quietly told him the truth. It turned out that she wasn't pregnant. She said she was pregnant before just to wake him up from his coma.
"You little liar. Just wait and see how I'll deal with you." Wu Chunzhe laughed and hugged Liu Yushu tightly.
Six months later.
Wu Chunzhe successfully captured the State of Nanling and returned in triumph. From then on, Nanling became the territory of the Great Yong.
The people across the country lined up to welcome them. They saw Wu Chunzhe riding a tall horse with a charming and beautiful woman on the horse. He put his arm around the woman's shoulder and exchanged a smile with her. The woman's belly was bulging high.
This time, Liu Yushu was really pregnant with his child. She was already five months pregnant.
Four months later, Liu Yushu successfully gave birth to a daughter.
During her confinement, after feeding the baby, she would hand the baby to the wet - nurse. One should not overwork during confinement, so Wu Chunzhe had carefully selected three or four wet - nurses since he returned to the capital.
After Wu Chunzhe came back from court, he would first go to the room to see Liu Yushu. She was sleeping. He smiled and quietly left the room. Then he went to the next room to see the baby. The baby was also sleeping obediently. Then he went back to guard Liu Yushu.
Before he knew it, Wu Chunzhe fell asleep. When he woke up, he was surprised to find that he was lying on the couch and she was in his arms.
What was going on?
Wu Chunzhe quickly got up, but was held down by Liu Yushu. She glared at him and pouted. "If you dare to leave, never step into my room again. I'll leave with the baby tomorrow."
Wu Chunzhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Since she gave birth to the baby, her personality had become even more naughty and cute, and she especially liked to threaten him.
He also wanted a younger brother or sister for his daughter, but it was really not convenient now. Her body hadn't fully recovered yet!
Wu Chunzhe gently kissed Liu Yushu's palm. "Be good. You're still in confinement. There are still 37 days left. Just bear with it."
Liu Yushu coquettishly said, "I don't. I want a son. Don't you want to have both a son and a daughter?" She angrily pounded him with her soft fist.
He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Of course I do. But I don't want to hurt you. Be a good girl."
She pouted and pulled his hand. "After having the baby, we have less and less time for just the two of us."
He smiled. "It won't be like this. Instead, you shouldn't neglect your husband because of the baby."
She tapped his head. "You big fool. How can you be compared with the baby?"
The room was filled with warmth. The young couple was deeply in love.
Wu Chunzhe: "There should be a younger brother around this time next year, right?"
Liu Yushu: "You're so weak. There won't be a younger brother."
Wu Chunzhe: "Who are you calling weak? Dare you say it again?"
Liu Yushu: "I dare not. You're amazing. You're the most amazing, okay!"
